It's easy to kill a deer (It's easy to kill a black boy)

Location

It's easy to kill a deer. 

They're only animals. They contribute nothing to society.

Who cares if another one is dead?

It's easy to kill a deer.

 

They're worthless and have no value.

I don't hate them. But I certainly don't appreciate thier existance.

It's easy to kill a deer.

 

Dead or alive, makes me no difference.

I could kill a deer and my life would continue. Not skipping a beat.

It's easy to kill a deer. 

 

What's the consequence?

Being hated by a activits?

A slap on the wrist from our society?

It's easy to kill a deer.

 

It's easy to kill a deer. Because my life is more important than his.

 

Meanwhile in America, our behavior tells another story...

 

It's easy to kill a black boy.

They're only animals. They contribute nothing to society.

Who cares if another one is dead?

Black boys are victims of murders because we see no value.

We might as well be bucks or  bears, why have you.

The time for us to be treated like humans is past due.
